Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels, the luxury hotel group with eight properties in Mauritius, has announced the reopening of Canonnier Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa. French interior designers, Paule de Romeuf and Amélie Montocchio, worked together to ensure that after several months Canonnier’s doors have reopened to reveal a completely transformed resort.

Canonnier boasts commanding views over the northern islands and sparkling Indian Ocean and the Beachcomber team has successfully blended these breathtaking surroundings with the resort’s interiors.

Guests staying at the revamped Canonnier Golf Resort & Spa will enjoy the new rooms draped in soft linen with the natural feel of rattan, wood and raffia that echoes the vegetation and gardens of the resort’s grounds. New lighting in all the rooms reflect Beachcomber’s desire to create harmony between the exterior and interior of the resort, which plays an essential role in creating the resort’s peaceful and serene atmosphere. Guests can rest assured that top quality materials were carefully selected for all aspects of the hotel to respect nature and the environment, as well as ensuring complete comfort and luxury.

At Canonnier there is plenty to explore once guests have settled in to their luxurious rooms. A unique feature of the resort is its wellness centre built in the branches of a 100-year-old banyan tree where therapists soothe both body and mind. Evoking a small tree house, Canonnier’s spa provides an authentic tropical hideaway for guests wishing to escape the stresses of daily life. This haven of peace and relaxation now features a new low stone wall that recalls the lighthouse that once stood in the resort’s tropical gardens, whilst the spa now also includes a sauna, hammam and fitness room. The resort’s swimming pool has also been refurbished to feature mosaic tiles that create a lagoon effect where the water shimmers a sparkling blue-green. For guests seeking a more active holiday, there is a wide range of land and water sports available. From tennis, volleyball and mountain biking to diving and snorkelling, there is something for everyone. The only golf course in the north of the island is also just 700 metres away and offers a very special welcome to hotel guests.

Cannonier’s fantastic transformation reflects the combination of experience and careful thought that has gone into creating a resort that is perfectly balanced between luxury and comfort. With all of these exciting new improvements guests will need to get in quickly to be among the first to experience the revamped resort and to enjoy their own Beachcomber holiday filled with relaxation, indulgence and spectacular surroundings.
